I'd like to know how many files I have open in PS (lots). I see the list in "Window" menu, but it continues past the bottom of the screen. Is there a location PS keeps track of the number of files open?

open files

I was wrong the scriop would not need to add 1

With a Photoshop script that would be the length of the Photoshop's documents array.

if (!documents.length) alert("No Open documents");

else alert(documents.length);
